CONTROLS AND INDICATORS

MODE Selection Button
The Mode selection button changes the
mode of operation of the charger between
AUTO CHARGE mode and POWER SUPPLY
mode. In Auto Charge mode, once the
charging parameters have been set and the
START button has been pressed, the charger
will commence a proprietary, advanced
100A
multi-phase charging sequence designed
to provide an optimal charge. POWER
SUPPLY mode provides steady, stable
power to maintain system voltage during Model No. PL6800
programming events, on-vehicle repairs and
other applications where it is detrimental for
system voltage to drop below a specific threshold.
SUPPLY Control Buttons
Once an operator chooses SUPPLY Mode, they are able to select the desired system voltage to be maintained.
Desired voltage can be increased or decreased in 0.1V increments
CHARGE Control Buttons
Once an operator chooses CHARGE Mode, there are additional settings that must be chosen prior to
commencing the charging sequence.
The Type button allows an operator to choose the specific battery type to be charged, enabling the charger
to provide the exact power profile for that battery type. Selectable battery types include traditional flooded
batteries and AGM batteries (including Spiral Wound batteries).
The Rate button allows an operator to choose the desired charge rate for each specific application. Selectable
charge rates include 100A, 40A or 10A charge rates.
START Button
The START button is used to commence each function once all of the functional parameters have been set to
the desired values. The START button can also be used to discontinue any function once it has commenced.
LED Status Lights
LED lights in the control panel indicate which functional mode the charger is currently set to, as well as current
status of the chosen function once the function has commenced. In addition, each function mode features
error LEDs to alert the operator to unsafe operating conditions, including battery faults and reverse polarity
connections.
